I have a MS Natural Pro keyboard that has two usb ports on the back of it, just wondering is it possible to set these up to work under linux?

The USB spec defines a "Serial Bus", allowing up to 127 USB compliant devices to communicate over a single USB controller. If you're keyboards USB Hub is connected to it's USB connector as per the USB standard then it should be pretty trival to chain standard USB devices off it.
